Londis food hygiene rating

Retailers - other · Enfield

Londis holds a 3: generally satisfactory. The shop met the legal standard, but the inspector recorded enough minor issues that it fell short of a good or very good rating.

The rating: 3 - Generally satisfactory

The rating dates from 21 December 2024, 18 months ago. That is getting on for the longest gap councils usually leave, so the score may not reflect how the business is run today.

Address: 289-293 Hertford Road, Enfield, EN3 5JN

What the inspector found

An inspection scores three things: how food is handled, the physical condition of the premises, and how much the inspector trusts management to keep standards up. At Londis none of the three raised a concern, the overall rating is only ever as strong as its weakest area, so a clean sweep is what produces a high score.

What is Londis's food hygiene rating?

Londis has a food hygiene rating of 3 out of 5 (generally satisfactory), given by Enfield Council on 21 December 2024.

Is Londis safe to eat at?

A 3 means the shop met the legal standard, so it is lawful to eat there, but the inspector recorded issues that stopped it scoring higher. It is the middle of the scale.

When was Londis last inspected?

Londis was last inspected on 21 December 2024, 18 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Enfield Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Londis?

The inspector scored three areas. Hygienic food handling was rated "generally satisfactory", the cleanliness and condition of the building "generally satisfactory", and confidence in the management of food safety "generally satisfactory". Lower concern in all three is what earns a high overall rating.

59% of the 2,114 rated food businesses in Enfield hold the top rating of 5, while Londis holds a 3. 227 places in the area share that rating.

Who decides the rating?

Enfield Council inspects Londis and sets the rating; the Food Standards Agency publishes it. Neither the business nor this site can change a rating, a business that disagrees can appeal to its council, and can request a re-inspection once it has fixed the problems.
